"Die In" Participants Come to Life

Loaded question, "Was it a terribly aggressive crowd you saw today?" A. "It was.....

[sakabatou]

1. Faux Snooze lies?!

Who'da thunk?

[BrklynLiberal]

2. What bunch of idiots on that station. They are so obviously a paid mouthpiece for BushCo.

They should change their logo to the Presidential Seal.

[proud2BlibKansan]

3. "Fairly equal numbers"

Then in the next breath he says "2 to 1"

So is he math disabled or just stupid?

[FREEWILL56]

8. I'd say both.

[kenfrequed]

19. Neither

He is a propagandist, a merchant of lies and deceit.

The numbers he 'mishandled' weren't even accurate.

At absolute cop-inflated best the counter demonstrators numbered somewhere under 1000.

Whereas the Police would not give numbers for Demonstrators who were somewhere between 25,000-100,000.

Fox news is truely Bush's Pravda.

4. Fox "Laurie" on the Protesters: These Are the People Who Never Have Served...

...and probably never will serve.

:puke:

[demodonkey]

5. She is SO 'fair and balanced'.

:puke: :puke:

[L. Coyote]

6. Yeah, that's why they are the "Veterans for Peace" BIMBO! What propaganda!

Just how stupid can stupid get on Faux?

[Viva_La_Revolution]

7. ignoring the fact that there were Iraq veterans among the anti-war protesters

but not among the pro-war group.

[FREEWILL56]

10. She is judging all of the protesters as being non service oriented

and yet I don't see her joining up to go to Iraq. I'd also like to know how she could say that serving=no protest and that not serving=protest in addition that she claims the young are against the war and those that are older are for the war based on that limited footage and the fact that SHE WASN'T THERE TO KNOW? THIS WAS VERY BAD REPORTING AS THEY HAD TRIED TO SENSATIONALIZE THIS WITH OBVIOUS BIAS.

[L. Coyote]

14. BIMBO check: "Laurie, is that why they are called 'Veterans for Peace" ?"

:rofl: How much does delusional wing-nut pay? :rofl:

[daninthemoon]

9. WOW! That propoganda was over the top even for faux. I kept

waiting for a sketch comedy punch line. I'm really aghast. Even worse, I haven't seen any coverage on msnbc or cnn. How many people will be taking this as an actual report?

[leftupnorth]

11. FAIRLY EQUAL NUMBERS???? I WAS THERE!

No WAY was it 2 to 1, more like 1000 to 1. I saw maybe a few hundred with my own eyes.

[toadzilla]

12. there was 1 block where pro war people

were pushed up against the barricade screaming fuck you, and making obscene blow job gestures, while i smiled and waved at them. we marched for what, 12 blocks? and covered the whole street, both sidewalks, so many people that we spent a good amount of time standing still on the march route because there were too many people to move forward.

[Thorn]

13. Street battle?

Was there also a "street battle", as the lie machine, a.k.a. Fox News, also reported in the "mis-information" text below the video? The video I saw looked pretty peaceful besides some yelling. Am I incorrectly in assuming the yelling was predominately by the war supporters? Pity this country, when we so many people take Fox News information as reality. I guess it supports their reality and allows them to sleep at night.

[L. Coyote]

15. You nailed it, "it supports their reality." Characteristic of delusional thinking

is the need to reinforce the delusion by stitching any supportive info into the web of lies, in any way that reinforces the underlying lie.

What is alarming is that this goes way beyond that. These reporters are knowingly applying a false spin, doing 'end justifies the means' journalism. Except, this is not journalism in any sense; this is true propaganda and nothing more.

[uberllama42]

16. "The Vietnamese never flew planes into buildings"?

Neither did the Iraqis, and that hasn't stopped this war.

Where's the "street battle"? I don't see any battle going on.

[RoccoR5955]

17. LIES! LIES! LIES!

This Faux Noise is nothing but a propaganda arm of Bushco, Inc.
This is totally unbelievable! WTF is going on in our country?
I think it's getting to be time for a revolution.

18. I hope Jon Stewart has a take on this come Monday!
